The moving and heart warming AMAZON BESTSELLER, a tale of love and redemption from Jane Harvey-Berrick
"Confidently and eloquently written, addictive cover to cover, every emotional word of this oh-so wonderful tale stole my breath away..." NATASHA IS A BOOK JUNKIE, 5*****
After eight years in prison, twenty-four year old Jordan Kane is the man everyone loves to hate. Forced to return to his hometown while on parole, Jordan soon learns that this small town hasn’t changed since he was carted off to juvie all those years ago. He is the local pariah, shunned by everyone, including his own parents. But their hatred of him doesn’t even come close to the loathing he feels every time he looks in the mirror. Working odd jobs for the preacher lady, Jordan bides his time before he can leave this backwards town. But can distance erase the memories that haunt him? Would living in another state free him from the prison of his mind? Will the pain of living ever subside?
Torrey Delaney is new in town and certainly doesn’t behave in a way the locals believe a preacher’s daughter should. Her reputation for casual hook-ups and meaningless sex quickly spreads around town. And that’s on top of her budding friendship with the hardened ex-con handyman – the good Reverend is less than thrilled with her estranged daughter’s path. As friendship forms, can two damaged people who are afraid to love take their relationship to the next level? Can Torrey live with Jordan’s demons, and can Jordan break through Torrey’s walls? With the disapproval of a small town weighing heavily on them, they struggle to find their place in the world. Can they battle the odds, or will their world be viciously shattered? Is love a life sentence?

***** TOTALLY BOOKED, 5* REVIEW *****
“This book consumed me. You know you’re on to a good read when you can’t even let go of your Kindle to cook the evening meal.
Jane Harvey-Berrick’s writing was flawless. The story was sad, poignant, emotive, and tragic and held a valuable lesson we can all take with us and Jordan and Torrey completely stole my heart.
This story tells how one wrong decision, one split second of misjudgement can change your life and it’s told beautifully.
We fell in love with two characters who certainly took a piece of our hearts with them by the end of this book. Lifers is a standalone story and one we absolutely recommend picking up.â€
